Re: Response to your LC Comment -2393 on Media Ontology spec

James,


We need to wrap up this issue in order to allow the MAWG to move forward 
the Media Ontology spec.


Could you please respond to this email and say:

1- that you cancel your formal objection.
2- that you agree to the MAWG proposal to include a
WebM multimedia container format mapping table

as you had referred to
http://www.webmproject.org


3- Do you plan to send us the WebM multimedia container format mapping 
table, whith the appropriate info ?

Best,

Thierry
